I highly recommend clearing your fiend list, then, if we can confirm that a few players have friended you today, I suggest that you just add them for now. I'm convinced that that is the best way for a new member to make a smooth entrance into OL.

You can definitely start by adding my three teams. I had a quick look at your current league, and I see that you'll be in Silver again next week. My Mevagissey team will be in Silver next week, so just adding them should get you in.

I'll give a reminder later after we've hit a new page, for anyone that may not see these posts.

ok, cleared the list, added your 3 teams and edster007 as friends.. who else should I add?

Stanley's three teams are Aceldama, Port Ruppert, and Tera Incognita, so you're good to add those.


If anyone else checks in today, can you add the Tampico Stogies to your friend list and also post a comment to let us know that you've added them. Cheers

Hangovers aren't a thing from sweet tea and fruit punch. (We're a dry crowd) But the cleanup was long and the extra hour was needed.

IRON
Daytona Beach shelled the competition with a tremendous late surge to capture the OL I202 title. Auckland needed to sweep their only OL series of the last five weeks of the season, but could only manage a split with Grovers Mill to fall to second place.

Both the Athletics and Tortugas have first-round byes in the playoffs. No teams will be relegated.

Open PT, and click on the universe tab, then click on the managers and rankings tab, Once there, type -ol|- ol in the search user box. That will bring up a page similar to that below. Just click to selct add as friend for those teams on your level as well as one below and above until you reach 30 teams.

Then you just go to profiles and setting, choose use Friends List for league placement and submit your team. That should do it. Welcome.

Thought I was replying to the new guy's post, but it turns out to be Tinkerman's. In any event, Johhny can follow my reply to Tinkerman.

use the 'Our league friends list' link at the bottom of my post for a complete list of OL teams. You'll at least want to add everyone in your tier, and it can't hurt to add the ones in the tiers above/below for next season's movement

also, double check your setting is "use friends list". That has had a tendency over the years to revert to 'random' at times (at least it used to... seems to be more stable these days, but never hurts to check it from time to time)

In fairness, with everyone from Silver and up probably being active, I have kind of needlessly complicated things with my suggestions

Johnny, you'd best add everyone again. Sorry 'bout that...

SaukCentre follows the path of Hurricane Ian and blows through Cape Coral on the way to their Iron Series Championship. Four Landshark hurlers combined on a 3-hit shutout of the Snowbirds in the deciding seventh game.

The Landsharks will be joined by Daytona Beach and Auckland in promotion.

Thanks for the help everyone! I have 30 OL friends (starting with my tier and working up and down til 30) and I have checked the friends list box.

And a lot of you crush tournaments! i enter multiple one's in iron and bronze every day and i think i have won 9.. any secrets you can share? (w/o giving away the store obv!)

thanks again and looking forward to being a part of this for sure.

[Tinkerman]

I'm happy to share all the details of my approach to tourneys with everyone in OL, but I'm not really keen to share with everyone else! I don't want to seem too full of it, but I'm sure I've got some useful tips, so maybe I could do a bulk PM sometime.

I've stuck to iron and bronze, so look out for my teams and see how they compare to yours. If they're pretty similar, it's likely the under the hood stuff that's making the difference.

[Tinkerman]

Congrats!

2048 tier breakdown:

one usual miss (New Zealand) at Stone; and one oddball miss (Daytona Beach) at Bronze


Stone= 4 teams (3 in one; 1 in another)
Iron= 7 teams
Bronze= 9 teams (8 in one; 1 in another)
Silver= 6 teams
Gold= 6 teams
Diamond= 4 teams



Gold league:

Brooklyn, Waxhaw, and Waffletown get to pound each other all season in the AC West. Shinbone, Columbia, and Port Ruppert all off in their own divisions.

[Tinkerman]

Diamond and Silver.

Looks like Diamond might just be between Aomori and LA, as they have interleague games.

Silver comes complete with the Tampico Stogies, who are very welcome.

[revmcgator]

IRON

Looks spread out.

[sabakon]

Lots of technical and other problems here. Sorry I've been a no show for a bit. Oddly, my teams seem to do better when I leave them alone...hmmm.

[Tinkerman]

No games in Diamond yet, and it will only be a battle for the crown between Aomori and LA.

I thought I'd finally sold one of my slightly overpriced cards overnight, but no... Spurred on by a 10-run first, Mount Hawke's Jerry Reuss hurled a perfect game!

[Tinkerman]

Tampico makes their debut, Coney Island out to the the early lead.
